Intuition and the Creation of a Better World

Trungpa, Chogyam

A work of art is created because there is basic sacredness, independent of the artist's particular religious faith or trust. That sacredness is the heaven aspect, which creates an umbrella, so to speak, that becomes very powerful and very real. At that point, human dignity is more important than the particular religion or discipline a person came from. Sacredness from that point of view is the discovery of goodness, which is independent of personal, social, or physical restrictions.
